UV Curing Inks for POD Label Systems
for L350 Series
Minimal buildupWith their combination of small droplet heads and Truepress inks with reduced thickness, Truepress Jet L350UV+ models deliver a more natural appearance with less unevenness of the cured ink surface. They also achieve a smoother finish with decreased ink buildup, an issue with conventional UV inkjet systems.

Low odorUV curing has a characteristic odor due to the raw materials. Truepress inks use specially selected materials that effectively reduce this odor.
Wider color gamutTruepress inks are produced with a proprietary formula, enabling a wider CMYK color gamut than with ordinary inks. Combining them with orange ink (option) can further widen the color gamut.
Low migration inkStandard ink

Highly versatile, low migration Truepress inks. Two types create major new value for the label industry.
A combination of independently developed RIP and inkjet printhead technologies enable ultra-precise printing. The choke function also prevents ink bleeding of outline text, providing excellent legibility even for the large amounts of information usually found on pharmaceutical and supplement labels. These features enable one pass processing of individual lot numbers and other variable printing jobs as well.
Sharp and reliable printing of even fine characters1
Variable printing of serial numbers
Truepress white ink contains the maximum possible ratio of pigment, providing high opacity and throughput of 30 meters per minute. It demonstrates ideal characteristics for film printing applications.
Measurement of opacity ratio
• Transparent film and white ink samples were layered on opacity test charts produced by Leneta.
• Spectrodensitometers equipped with an opacity function were used to measure black and white areas to calculate opacity ratios.

The Blue Wool Scale measures the permanence of coloring dyes. The test was originally developed for textile manufacturing but is now commonly used by the printing industry as a measure of the light-fastness of ink colorants in response to ultraviolet radiation. Light-fastness differs from durability, which refers to the stability of a pigment in relation to chemical or environmental factors. A Blue Wool rating of zero represents extremely poor light-fastness while eight indicates a color is completely stable during testing.

This function allows spot colors to be selected from a list and automatically generates a color variation chart of the selected color. After checking the chart, you can select the color closest to the target and reflect it in the data. This enables simplified matching of spot colors.
ICC profiles enable automatic spot color printing as well as color matching to meet client requirements. Pantone’s color library is available as a standard feature, allowing smooth handling even if data includes a large number of spot color specifications.

Truepress inks for the Truepress Jet L350UV+LM are specially developed for food packaging applications. �ese inks lower the migration of their components compared to standard inks. �e nitrogen purge mechanism installed in the systems’ UV lamp section lowers oxygen concentra-tions that can inhibit UV ink curing. �is accelerates curing and dramatically reduces odor compared to conventional UV inks.
SCREEN GA has conducted the evaluation of migration amount with TruepressJetL350UV+LM printed samples at the third-party testing laboratory. The test was implemented based on the regulations below.
• Regulations (EU) No 10/2011 on plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food
• Regulations 1935/2004 and the Dutch legislations chapter XI• CEN method EN 1186-1:2002 (17 April 2002) and CEN method
EN 13130-1:2004 (26 May 2004)
Contents : All Food
Printed substrates (Label substrates): Semi-Gloss paperContacted materials : PET25µmThe migration level in the test above was under the limits which are regulated by the regulations above. However, migration levels differ related to printing conditions like substrates kinds and thickness, usage conditions and also food contents. We, therefore, recommend that printers consult with their clients and conduct migration test at third-party testing laboratories.
Usage for food packagingFood packaging application safety is determined by not only ink but also printing conditions such as substrate types and thickness, usage conditions and also food contents. The responsibility for ensuring the safety and food sensory integrity of the printed package lies with the printer and the printer’s clients. SCREEN will assist customers with development of safe food package printing production.
Usage of LM inks for food packaging1
Labels for food packaging must satisfy Outside strict safety standards. The Truepress Jet L350UV+LM features newly developed low migration (LM) inks* and a nitrogen purge mechanism that dramatically reduces extractable ink components after printing.As well as decreasing migration risks, these innova-tions significantly lower typical UV ink odors. Together they help to extend the considerable merits offered by digital technologies for variable and short-run printing to food packaging applications.
* Low migration inks cannot be used with, or substituted for, standard inks. Migration levels are subject to individual migration tests. They may vary depending on the conditions of usage.
Low migration inksLow migration inks for Truepress Jet L350+LM systems comply with the following regulations related to food packaging.

Compliance with main ink regulations5UV ink migrationMigration occurs when residual photo initiator and monomer in UV inks pass through packaging and enter the product inside.
Low migration technologiesThe initiators and monomers included in UV inks are extremely small on a molecular level and have the possibility of penetrating general food packaging and enter the food inside. Our proprietary low migration inks are specially developed to work with a nitrogen purge mechanism that accelerates UV curing. Together, they are highly successful in reducing the migration of ink components. The odors inherited in UV inks also reduce with maximizing the ink curing ratio. This ensures the printing process has no impact on the flavor of packaged foods.
